Sharks and Lasers at the International Spy Museum

A James Bond themed party?? Sign me up! I am absolutely crazy for anything Bond. If I catch a marathon on TV some random weekend, I just chuck my productivity out the window. DC’s Brightest Young Things hosted a party tonight at the International Spy Museum in conjunction with the current exhibit celebrating 50 years of Bond villainy.

The event organizers thought of everything, including a mechanical shark ride (like a bucking bull), a Solitaire impersonator to read your tarot cars, and a secret martini bar serving the traditional shaken, not stirred martini. While all that would definitely catch my attention, when I arrived at the party, I beelined for the one thing I wanted to see most of all – Richard Kiel, a.k.a. JAWS from “The Spy Who Loved Me” and “Moonraker” was there, in person! That alone made my night! Alas, the metal teeth synonymous with Jaws remained in the display case behind Mr. Kiel.
